The royal baby's birth pushes his uncle, Prince Harry, to sixth in line for the throne.

Kate Middleton gave birth to a baby boy on Monday, adding another member to the British Royal Family.

The baby, who has been named Louis Arthur Charles, is fifth in the royal family's line of succession to the crown. The baby's grandfather, Prince Charles, is first in line behind Queen Elizabeth II, followed by the baby's father Prince William and the baby's two older siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry, the second child of Prince Charles and younger brother to William, got bumped down a spot with the baby's arrival, and is now sixth in line for the throne.
